Despite owning the PAK Vicious which this figure is meant to be paired up with, it's only today that I finally managed to get Spike, and at 4k yen at that!

Anyway, even with the little amount of accessories, this is by far one of Square Enix's best PAKs let alone one of their best figures to date like.... just WOW. Seriously for all the complaints and QC issues that people may have towards PAKs, Spike is proof that the line is capable of something great. Also his joints are all solid enough that he doesn't need a base to be able to stand up even with his slender frame.

Seriously, if you're a figure collector and a Bebop fan, this is basically the best action figure available for Spike. It's just that good.

Being my first Play Arts Kai figure, I wasn't too impressed with it compared to my gutto kurro motoko, however overtime it has grown on me and I actually prefer Spike now! The only complaint I have is that Spike didn't come with a stand. I ended up taking my broken Konami DDR mat, scrapping the mat and using the circuit sealer as a stand. It even tilts! I'll have to upload it as a diary entry another day, as well as a review of course : 3
